Invest in yourself

Something I’ve been wanting to blog about for awhile is in the investment you place in yourself. Bad news – not everything is free, despite all the freemium tools out there, you could find something for everything, but eventually you’d run into limits and problems and start getting all – “well I can only do 5 posts of these a week because then I hit my cap” – really?  That is what is going to limit your potential genius being released is a cap on a tool that is for free?

The Last Lecture

If you have never watched the The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch then you need to take some time tonight and watch it.  The video is not only a great message for how to achieve your childhood dreams but to keep achieving them as you get older.  You don’t always get to where you thought you’d be, but there are lots of different paths you can go down to get somewhere, that can be just as rewarding.  And it’s not just about your dreams, but those around you, what you can do to help them.  I’ve watched this video about 3
